Ah, see. I don't aim for handhelds. I mean, I don't have any content
meaningful to someone 'on the road'. My pages are way too long for
comfortable reading in those tiny things too. That's why a handheld is
almost never on my mind when authoring. And that's also why I refered to
graphical browsers with CSS. You put it in a different context. Worth your
while thinking off, mind you. But different. I don't think my site is read
with a handheld ever, or close to never at least.

Hang on. What makes you say that? I don't see any bad markup. There is no
bad markup involved. You, dear Sir Dorward, may have some (sometimes
strong) opinions on this matter, but that doesn't make your opinions
_the_ultimate_truth_.

Not necessarily, no. As I indicated in a previous post, one can use the
preloaded images to create hover effects in menu's and such. And as I see
that, there is no eason what so ever to use javascript for that. A bit of
css will do that for you just fine. And as far as I'm concerned, css does
that better, than javascript does.
All in my opinion of course :-)
